Chelm Canary isn't wrong though... -
No PA at Carrow Road 😀
alex_ncfc replied to Canary Jedi's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
The countdown to On the ball City is probably the cringiest thing possible at any football ground, I despair what away fans must think. -

Alex Scott stepping down from presenting duties will be a very good side effect from this mess, hopefully it's permanent. Same goes with the MOTD presenter and pundits. Sack them all off. Just have a football highlights show with a voiceover and save £millions! -

Hopefully it'll stay this way. What a shame that an episode without presenters who think they're funny and pundits who don't know any of our player's names coincides with us not being in the Prem. -
Reminds me of when Martin Hunter joined to much fanfare, had the caretaker manager job for a game or two and then left soon after. I think when coaches have the caretaker job they have their nose put out of joint a bit when they don't get the full time gig. Similar with Alan Irvine too.

Robert Chase
alex_ncfc replied to ......and Smith must score.'s topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
This is where the slagging off of Chase as some sort of villain and 'awful chairman' over all the years and painting the Delia/MWJ regime like they are some sort of saints falls completely flat. There is no difference at all. In fact you could argue it's worse now because we have sweet FA to show for the sales of Maddison, Lewis, Godfrey and Buendia, to name a few. "bUt tHe ClUb aLmOsT wEnT OuT oF BuSiNeSs" - almost did under Smith and Wynn-Jones too. Holds no water. -

Have to say if it is true then it will be sad that the man was not afforded invites as a guest to a game/games at Carrow Road by the current board (unless they have and he declined, who knows) What happened was almost 30 years ago, should have forgiven and forgotten a long time back, we still have a club and we also had our best times with him as chairman, times which will probably never be replicated. Even if RC hadn't sold our best players and we had a little more success for a bit, we were never going to become the next Chelsea or Man City. People go on about how we went down when the big money was coming in, well plenty of clubs who were in the Prem during that period are nowhere to be seen in the top flight anymore. -

Agreed, a minute's applause is inappropriate and cheesy, the whole point of a silence is for a period of reflection. -
Wonder if they'll go back to the shop in the Castle Mall, which has been empty ever since they left.

Millwall flashback- The classic 4-3
alex_ncfc replied to cambridgeshire canary's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
The game was still just 1-1 until practically the 80th minute! -
Stop writing players off
alex_ncfc replied to lake district canary's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Idah is so poor. He will never be the goal scorer we need, I don't understand why some seem so desperate to try and defend and justify his selection in the team. Norwich giving him a 5 year contract smacks of desperation he will come good, when he does nothing to show he has it in him. Fans have always criticised players who aren't good enough. It will never change, nor should it - the fans pay their money and are entitled to their view. -

The goal music is dreadful and should have been ditched years ago. Bring back a proper atmosphere when we score. -
Is Idah the worst striker to ever play for Norwich?
alex_ncfc replied to mastoola's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
He confirmed again today just how dreadful he is. -
Just seen the breaking news that John Motson has sadly passed away. I'm sure most of us grew up with him being the voice of football, also commentated on some great NCFC moments over the years.

The first two were offered long contracts when they signed - before we knew how bad they were. Ashton was offered a long contract so we could get maximum money for him as the club knew he wanted to leave. -

alex_ncfc replied to mastoola's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Certainly the worst striker ever to be handed an undeserved long-term contract. Has shown literally nothing for it. -
All is not so rosy down the road either....
alex_ncfc replied to Captain Holt's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
They'll make the playoffs, but the aspirations down there are much higher. It's pretty funny that they have lost faith in the manager in a matter of months. Was a shame Derby couldn't nick a win last night. -
Cantwell stirring the pot again
alex_ncfc replied to CANARYKING's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
This is how it started for him at Bournemouth - started a few games, then was getting subbed after 45 mins. A familiar story. -
Let's be honest, the SPL is just about the height of his ambitions and his level. If we can re-coup even half the £5m we wasted on him then we'll have done well.

The guy who phoned a few minutes ago, saying he's supported them for over 60 years, cannot be genuine.

Results above have gone shockingly badly for us today.
